Fun Political Definitions for New Year's Eve

Rather than doing a serious post for New Year's Eve, I thought I'd break with my usual somber self and post some fun "definitions" of political terms. It might not fit textbook definitions, but I think these capture the essence of it all. Enjoy!

Socialism – If you have two cows, you give your neighbor one.

Communism – If you have two cows, you give them to the Government and the Government gives you some of the milk.

Fascism – If you have two cows, you keep the cows, give the milk to the Government, and the Government then sells you some of the milk.

New Dealism – If you have two cows, you shoot one, milk the other one and pour the milk down the drain.

Nazism – If you have two cows, the Government shoots you and takes the cows.
